BTW, these ship from England, but I got to say it arrived quicker than getting things from California.

Stack Audio-SmoothLAN Network Filter- WOW!
I just received this item that I purchased from Stack Audio after being impressed with the AUVA 100 Speaker footers.
For any of the Audio Streamers out there, my initial comment as to this item: The SmoothLAN Network Filter is WOW!
From first plug in, the soundstage deepened and widened immensely. How the heck this occurs is nothing short of amazing. I have tried many of the major brand ethernet filters, and some of them, maybe, did something. But not enough to keep them. I either sent them back or sold them. I did however keep an iFi Silencer unit.
My digital streaming consists of an EtherRegen sending out the signal via Fiber to my Lumin X1. I have the Stack Audio device going into the EtherRegen from the Modem.
And, since I have my Apple TV coming out of the EtherRegen it will be interesting to see if the Video improves.
Check out the review in EAR.

@ozzy Thanks for the recommendation. Just ordered one to give it a go. Thanks |
An Aussie Audiophile like the Smooth Lan as well. He has been big on Stack's Auva 100's and the EQ's. Do you plug the Smooth LAN directly into your wall Ethernet port? Then the EtherRegen into the Smooth Lan? Then your streamer into the EtherRegen? I need to have ATT put in an ethernet port into the wall at my equipment rack as there is none there now. My WiFi modem is upstairs for my desktop. My house is old so I'll see if they can do fiber optic there. I'm still trying to figure out if I need an EtherRegen switcher! Thanks. |
